Always update your resume based on each position you are applying for.

Justin Taylor

I completely agree! Your resume should change and geared towards each specific job you apply to. You have many great talents and skills - many companies have different requirements etc. This is why you must constantly edit your resume to fit each opportunity to best align yourself as a direct fit! Good luck!

Pretty much you have to put the key words in the resume. You will be looked over.

Daria Gourianova

Make sure to use the same key words as the job description in your resume and cover letter, especially with the many different ways to refer to the same technology. This is just one step to ensuring a callback!

Marnie Pertsinidis

Please insure any bolding or objective matches the role you are applying for....so many discarded for the first line saying they are looking for work as a Project Manager but applying to a Business Analyst role

Using the key words in the job posting and tailoring your resume accordingly.

You need to customize it for every role. ever changing and adapting

Make time to review the JD and make necessary changes in your resume. Highlight/Bold the key statements you want to emphasize.

Always flood your resume with key words mentioned in the JD under as many applicable companies.

Isaac Castelan

Yes, make sure you can out stand as an applicant to others. Make sure your resume has some key words mentioned in the JD, make sure you are being an asset. Make yourself a "living, breathing document"

I recommend opening each resume with 3-6 points highlighting qualifications. Ideally this is updated and tailored to each job's requirements. A quick change that is very effective.

Malvina Przybylak

Yup! Phrase your qualifications to match the requirements in the job description, even using some of the same terminology and you'll have a much better shot.

Richard Huntington

If I'm working with a candidate whose resume doesn't quite line up with the role, but they have the experience and background required, I tell them to tailor their resume so that it better aligns to the role. The worst feeling is having a candidate who has the qualifications and skill-set be declined because their resume didn't quite align with the description.
